Reconciliation

Close your eyes,
Free falling.
Found in a newspaper
With a catchy hook and a spelling error,
You left your graces in the hands of a guilty man.
This mirror has perspective
And you laid in my bed with your lips turning blue.
These words were a song that never came true.
Some smiles are shared with no one else
They bounce off perfect walls
And fall behind shelves.
You open your eyes
For honesty's sake,
And let out a breath for the mess you have made.
